Question

write 2 or more paragraphs :

discuss the many different ways that communication impairment professionals improve the quality of life for their patients, then discuss which communication profession is most appealing to you and why.

Answer 1

• Talk to the patient with speech disability as you would talk to anyone else, use your regular tone of voice without shouting
• Be patient because it may take the person extra time to communicate. Do not speak for the patient or complete the patients sentences
• Give the patient a proper attention and eliminate background noise and distraction
• If the patient uses a communication device, such as manual or electronic communication board ,ask the patient the best way to use it
• Do not pretend to understand if you do not tell the patient you do not understand what he or she has said and ask the patient to repeat the message ,spellit, tell it in a different way, write it down.use hand testers and notes
• Repeat what you understand and note the patients reaction, which can indicate if you understood correctly
• Develop a specific communication strategy that is consistent with patient abilities: not of head or blink to indicate agreement or disagreement with what you have asked or said
• To obtain information quickly,ask short questions that require brief answers or a head not,avoid insulting the patient

In my opinion the most appealing communication way is the 5 th point written above ie do not pretend to understand if you do not tell the patient if you do not understand what he or she said and ask the patient to repeat the message ,spell it , tell it in a different way or write it down or by hand testers or notes ,because it will help the patient not to be disappoint about their disability to communicate with physician and it will help the physician to provide a better treatment
